Carro discussed Wirtz's potential transfer situation, referencing former Bayer Leverkusen head coach Xabi Alonso's past interest in signing the player for Real Madrid. Carro stated that if Alonso had made an offer, Wirtz would have likely joined Real Madrid.

Carro emphasized that the Wirtz family and player had prioritized extending his contract with Bayer Leverkusen. The club was prepared to make an exception for Wirtz and offer him a new contract, but ultimately, the decision was left up to the player.

Carro noted that while Alonso had significant influence in the transfer process at Bayer Leverkusen, the final decision on player transfers at Real Madrid is made by the club's president, Florentino Perez.

It's worth noting that Liverpool and Real Madrid will face each other in the Champions League this week. Wirtz will have the opportunity to face off against his former head coach, Alonso, while Trent Alexander-Arnold will return to Anfield for what promises to be a highly anticipated match.
